Hannibal: This Is My DesignDr. Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant forensic psychiatrist, cannibalistic serial killer, and culinarian. Very classy and loves the arts. But also is the infamous killer known as the Chesepeak Ripper. During one of his hunts for 'food' he surprisingly got outwitted by his prey and his intended victim escaped. Found by local police staggering down an isolated road in Virgina the authorities assume her to be one of the Rippers victims. The one and only survivor. But sadly she was of no use to them. She had been drugged up and it was so dark she never saw the killers face. So they send her to Dr. Lecter for treatment in hopes he could help her remember things to lead them towards this ruthless killer. Not realizing right away that her new therapist was in fact this said killer she leans on him for support. Giving him the opportunity to manipulate his gorgeous prey in other forms. ((Think of her as a female Will Graham))

of course (!) Hannibal would have let her get away because he knew she would later be referred to him for treatment. but this sounds like she would be the means to get to 'will graham' than be the 'will graham'. unless she proved to be more interesting than the initial 'will graham'. at which case we both know how that'd end up.
